you can make use of plasma collimators to shape the plasma projectile. Just a little note from Halo Wiki.

It kinds serves as a sort of "Yeah... your weapon ain't so special" moment.

Idiotic brain burst. If the third metal produces electricity and oscillinium gets high on electricity... if you put them side by side wouldn't that generate a crapload of energy?

EDIT: the cannon is an enemy weapon. If I had to name a weakness... it would be the instability of the whole thing. It can only carry one slug at a time as a power source. Once he shoots the slug, well he needs to pick up another. Railguns aren't exactly the best when it comes to ammo cap. Just carrying around oscillinium is difficult considering it keeps shaking.

Let's just say I'm trying to grasp the design of various OC machines for a non-existant new year resolution that certainly does not involve me making a mediocre flash animation.

It's a dream of writer to made their OC as unique as possible. But to be honest, you kept adding extra stuff and made it so unique that its sticking like a sore thumb. Unique doesn't always means out of context.

Maybe it's my own selfish ego anyway, Stratos doesn't seem to mind at all, so I honestly apologize for being an ass

No... I can see what you mean. But I guess it's because I haven't quite explained the actual execution of each weapon.

For example, the oscillinium blade works mostly like an Uchigane sword. However when it comes in contact with shield energy, it lights up creating a hybrid solid-state energy blade. It's more effective against shields but mostly normal against standard armoring.

The second sword, one I like to call Tekkou or Iron Light is a very reactive high energy state blade. It's capability of cutting stems from its chemical reactivity. It overloads low energy state atoms and turns them into free ions. This makes it effective against solid-state armors but no go against IS standard energy shielding due to being a high energy particle already. Tekkou becomes nothing more than a glorified star wars beam saber replica.

The last metal, an electric blade is something that I don't know how to use yet but it just felt like something that had to be made. kind of... hmmm...

I don't really mind an outstanding OC machine as along as the combat suffice. That said, I don't mind one-sided battles as long as the machine OR the pilot has a weakness.

If you'd realize, most if not all machines like Gundams are armed to the teeth that they appear unstoppable, yet they get fooked sometime in the story. As long as the balance is there.

Terrestrial Dreamer:
Said to be first true mass production model of I.S., eschewing many of the secondary 'gimmicks' for more practical purposes due to the Treaty acting as restriction, the designer is highly dissatisfied. It features no core, instead, it has integrated computer and power source.

However, in reality, it's relatively poor capability is offset by it's extreme cost effectiveness, four times that of true I.S. And since it's a completely new unit separated from it's predecessor, it's production and deployment are unrestricted by Alaska treaty.

The name referred to their lack of true flight capability, much like Generation 1 I.S.es. Terrestrial Dreamer doesn't have extension around it's limbs, and it's fully enclosed in armor.

Armored Stratos:
TD Unit retrofited with I.S. technology and sub-core system, bridging the expensive novelty that is I.S. and run of the mill T.D., Armored Stratos requires the pilot to be fully synchronized, since each sub-core are unique. Thus, pilot of Armored stratos doesn't necessarily come from the military.

Armored Stratos regained several function present in mainstay I.S. in military service, such as interchangeable weaponry and equipment, and some of them usually posses true flight ability as well.

The name referring to their usual appearance, being fully armored unit much like TDs. Some A.S. unit are designed quite radically and some doesn't look humanoid in the slightest, however such as centaur, tiger, or even giant spider.

Duplica Stratos
Is made by Phantom task, and is near perfect copy of I.S. to a T. Some of them are simply vacant I.S. frame equipped with replicated core. Though the mass produced model usually is a striped down version of the original.

The main merit is that they possess near 100% feature of I.S., in terms of statistic, the mass produced D.S. model is more powerful than TD unit, and somewhat weaker than Armored Stratos in general. D.S. main flaw lies on it's faulty core system, and is estimated to have over 5% fatality rate in the tightest combat scenario.

Fortress
Fortress is not a stand alone unit, it's operation requires I.S. or any of it's derivatives, though most fortress can be remote controlled as well, the function wasn't intended for combat.

Fortress is used to enhance the control unit's battle capabilities in specific field, and come in all shapes and sizes. Some of them are simple backpack attachment, while others can be as large as a medium jet fighter.

Sweet! Now I just need to... match up my art skill.
